Education & Opportunity

Government’s role is to encourage self-responsibility and bolster opportunity for all Americans. It’s important that our children are taught these lessons at an early age. Florida parents know better than the federal government what strategies will help our students to learn and succeed. We support school choice, apprenticeship programs and innovative initiatives to give everyone a chance to pursue the American Dream.

STEUBE AND BANKS: Congress must depoliticize college accreditation standards

Washington Examiner – Wokeness is destroying American universities. Our colleges have become incapable of producing civic virtue and intellectual curiosity in their graduates. And over time, that will make those virtues increasingly rare in America. That frightening prospect is part of what led to the launch of the Anti-Woke Caucus at the start of the 118th Congress.
